How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Questions from Stapleton
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Repairing versus replacing in Stapleton
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
